Was Miss Puerto Rico trolling Trump with snake in the garden monologue?

Ah Miss America, the Gods delivered. Or at least the devil, in the form of a red-clad Miss Puerto Rico, impersonating, in a red full body suit initially covered by a judicial robe, the proverbial snake in the garden turned presidential candidate for her talent on preliminaries.
Was she trolling Donald Trump? Hillary Clinton? The American electorate?
She did not win night 3 in talent in Boardwalk Hall — that went to the awesome Miss Michigan Arianna Quan on Piano, who was also in a way trolling the presidential candidates with her platform about immigration.
You might see Quan on Sunday during the televised pageant finals. But the pageant would be more likely to go back to Vegas, described as the dark era Thursday night, than advance Miss Puerto Rico Carole Rigual and her devilish monologue.
"You guys are so predictable!" the forensic psychologist with a degree from the University of Puerto Rico began, still in judicial black. "Yes, always pretending that you are happy. Successful. Thanking God for his blessings. (smooch). You try to be the best humans because those are the divine laws."
Then, the transformation, shedding the robe for a bodysuit and a chair (shades of Clint Eastwood)?
"You got me. I’ve existed for an eternity. I am the snake that gave Adam and Eve the forbidden fruit. I am a sea of evil. Did I get your attention?"
Then, with a wicked laugh, full on presidential candidate:
"Ladies and gentleman: what this country needs is a person like me with a desire to contribute to  a better society by electing us a new president.
"I guarantee that thiiings wiilll change. You humans are so easy to manipulate."
Then, with an arching back bend: "Do you know who I am now?"
Donald Trump? An easy conclusion maybe, with the buffoonish authoritarian character. But the deep throated voice also evoked Hillary Clinton, in a way. Then again, writer Lisa DePaulo, an uncommonly astute pageant observer, concluded: "I think she was channeling Melania."
Either way, Miss Puerto Rico can take her place alongside other monologues and talent that never make it to the main stage but make Miss America what Miss America was always meant to be.

Kellogg's signs on with DreamWorks

Image
Dreamworks, the movie studio headed by Steven Spielberg and other big media moguls, Television has signed cereal and snacks maker Kellogg's to create treats and goodies based on its movies. Under the agreement Kellogg's gets exclusive rights to make cereals and other tasty breakfast foods based on Dreamworks movies including Shrek 3 and Madagascar 2. Kellogg's will be responsible for promoting the foods, and therefore the movies, via in-store, TV and online ads. Kellogg's is just four years into what was supposed to be a 15-year agreement to do just this kind of thing for Disney but that deal's fate is now uncertain. Kellogg's is unlikely to create product for two movies from competing studios, after all. Sales of the Disney movie-themed snacks were moderate at best.
